The Canadian NDP loses official party status in Parliament due to a drop to seven seats.
The Canadian New Democratic Party (NDP) will not receive official party status in the House of Commons, as they now hold only seven seats, below the required 12. This means the NDP will lose access to financial resources, guaranteed committee seats, and the ability to ask daily questions. Interim NDP Leader Don Davies has discussed the issue with the Prime Minister's Office, pointing to provincial precedents. The NDP previously lost and regained official status in 1993 and 1997.
